Charlie’s Requiem follows Charlie, a young nurse, as she fights to survive after an electromagnetic pulse wipes out modern technology across Central Florida. The series is set in A. American’s Going Home universe and starts with the immediate chaos of the EMP strike before expanding into larger conflicts over resources, territory, and power.
Beginning with Charlie’s Requiem in 2015 and running through Contagion in 2023, the five books track Charlie’s growth from a frightened survivor into a capable leader. Each installment raises the stakes, introducing new threats from both the collapsed infrastructure and from other survivors willing to do anything to take what they need.
